I did. I've got lovely reflective yellow walls in my house, and the doorframes are a fantastic shade of shiny black.

If it's matt or glossy black it should work.

So will a crisp packet stuck on, or just remove the number plate.Not that I endorse such patents pending.

Would you care to delete that post David?

It says a lot about you that I am sure is not correct.


Back to subject:

The Road Vehicles (Display of Registration Marks) Regulations 2001
11. - (1) No reflex-reflecting material may be applied to any part of a registration plate and the plate must not be treated in such a way that the characters of the registration mark become, or are caused to act as, retroreflective characters.

(2) A registration plate must not be treated in ANY OTHER WAY which renders the characters of the registration mark less easily distinguishable to the eye or which would prevent or impair the making of a true photographic image of the plate through the medium of camera and film or any other device.

OFFENCE

Ok to sell the stuff but not to use it

Don't the pious r-soles in the camera businesses like to tell us how we'll get caught anyhow, their magic cameras can see through mud or any of these sprays? In that case they can't presumably prosecute you for using things which they tell you themselves don't work. Can they?
